Effect of glass fiber on the properties of expansive soil and its utilization as subgrade reinforcement in pavement applications

The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of glass fibers as discrete random reinforcement in expansive subgrade soil to improve its strength for pavement application. The fiber content varied between 0.25 % and 1.0 % by weight of dry soil. A series of free swell, Unconfined Compressive St...
